Open consultations and surveys
North East Lincolnshire Council is reviewing its polling districts, polling places and polling stations to ensure arrangements remain suitable, accessible and convenient for electors.
The review focuses on creating new polling districts for Immingham Town Council, following boundary changes agreed through the Parish Council Community Governance Review in March 2024. These changes include a north and south split along Pelham Road and must be reflected in the electoral register published on 1 December 2026.
Comments are also welcomed on polling arrangements across the borough, including any issues with accessibility, suitability of venues or alternative arrangements that may better support voters, polling staff and the Returning Officer.
The Council report detailing the purpose and background to the review can be found here: Council 30th July 2026.

Help shape North East Lincolnshire’s Food Health Plan

Whether your experiences have been positive or challenging, your views matter.
By taking a few minutes to complete this survey, you’ll help us better understand the needs of our community. Your feedback will help shape North East Lincolnshire’s Food Health Plan and ensure it reflects the needs of our community.

The survey will run until 19th August 2026.
The results of the survey will be published as part of the Food Health Plan in the autumn on the Council’s website.
Is there enough childcare in North East Lincolnshire? Does it meet your needs? If you’re choosing not to use childcare for your children, why is that?
These are just some of the questions that North East Lincolnshire Council is seeking parents to answer as part of an annual consultation into the provision of childcare in the area.
By surveying local parents, the Council can get a picture of the childcare needs, and this includes funded provision for under 4s and wraparound childcare provision for primary aged children.
The survey also seeks to understand what the barriers are to local parents accessing and using childcare.
The survey will run until 31st August 2026. The results will be published in the autumn on the Council’s website.

The Cancer Alliance is asking people to complete a 10-minute online survey to share
their views on a wide range of topics and issues affecting cancer patients and cancer services in Humber and North Yorkshire, to help to build cancer services for the future.
The Cancer Alliance wants to hear from:
- current and past cancer patients and carers
- people working in cancer services
- people working in other healthcare settings
- general public
The insight gathered via this survey, along with the contents of the national 10-year plan for cancer, will inform the development of the Humber and North Yorkshire plan for cancer.
This plan will shape how we prevent, diagnose, treat, and support people affected by cancer over the next decade. To make sure it reflects the needs of our populations, we need your insight.
Every response helps us build a stronger, more sustainable future for cancer services. Please spare a few minutes to complete this survey: Survey Details | DEVELOPING a 10-year cancer plan for Humber and North Yorkshire
Thank you for helping shape what comes next.

About our consultations
What is a consultation?
A consultation is a process of the public providing their views and feedback on a proposal to consider in the decision-making. Some consultations have to be undertaken as part of ‘official guidance’ within specific projects or pieces of work. Consultations and surveys are also used to seek more general insight and feedback from our communities on certain topics or subject areas.
How does a consultation work?
No two consultation exercises are the same, and how to consult on a particular area/issue or proposed policy/service change or development will be based on each specific project or piece of work.
How can I take part in a consultation?
Consultations are mainly undertaken via online/paper surveys and further insight and engagement can be conducted through focus groups, one-on-ones and pop-up events where necessary.
What are the ‘About You’ questions for?
At the end of some consultations and surveys, you will see an ‘optional’ set of questions titled ‘About You’. The reason is it helps us understand who we are reaching with our engagement and if we have gaps (for example age groups, communities of NE Lincs, etc). This could help us look to change how we reach out or share surveys and consultations on future projects and work, hence why we appreciate you taking the time to complete this section.
Not just consultations
We’ve explained what a ‘consultation’ is but that’s not the only type of engagement activity undertaken. This page houses surveys too, from both us and on behalf of partner organisations. We also undertake a variety of other engagement work, such as focus groups, pop-up events and one-on-ones to name a few. We look to ensure the method of engagement fits with the work we are supporting.
